Dim Sum or Dian Xin (点心
Dim sum (in Cantonese) or dian xin (点心 has a very long history in China and is sometimes linked with the tradition during the Silk Road where tea-houses served tea along with various snacks. Dim sum is prepared as small bite-sized or individual portions of food traditionally served in small steamer baskets or on small plates.
Despite the fact that dim sum was originally a snack and not meant to be main meal, it has developed to be a cuisine with it's own unique style. It is very popular among the Cantonese and in many parts of Guangdong province (espec in Guangzhou) and Hong Kong, eating dim sum at a restaurant is known as yum cha (飲茶 or ‘drinking tea’, as tea is usually served with it. Dim sum or dian xin could literally be translated as ‘point or touch of the heart’.
Dim sum includes wide range of snacks including various types of steamed buns or Bao (包such char-siew bao (叉燒包, Shanghai steam buns (上海小籠包, lotus paste buns and custard buns; dumplings or gao/jiao (餃, rice noodles, spare ribs, meatballs, chicken feet, congee, lotus leaf rice, various rolls and cakes, flaky pastries and many more.
